"Sandra, Your boot camp format is perfect - please offer more of the same! "

- Kris

"Hi Sandra, Mendocino Bootcamp is incredible and so are you. I like working with a partner, the bands and the relays. Thank you for doing this and thanks also for the pictures, everyone looks like they are working hard and having fun. "

- Debbie

"I really like sprinting and running around the cones and running up the stairs.. It felt like I got a great workout. I do like everything though. I especially like the core workout. I am going to continue thru June!!! See you tomorrow. "

- Shelley

"I really enjoy the "racing" type drills -- I guess you call it interval training, where we do certain movements to the cones and then come back to tone arms and legs. Really hard, but really fun. See you tomorrow! "

"Ode to MBC OK, Ladies, let's take it outside We need this class, we're far too wide! Class starts on time; be there at seven When the sun is shining, the beach is heaven. Let's warm up and hit the sand We're awake and with it with bands in hand. Sandra is our coach;Teresa her assistant Both give their best to keep us consistent. Chins up, shoulders back and pull that core in Follow these steps and you'll always look trim. We're here to lose inches - perhaps even a pound Dreaming of thinness and no longer round. As Jane once said, "Go for the burn" You're bound to see changes - your thighs will be firm! You hear a few groans - this is really hard work Remember ladies - tiny waists are a perk. Pushups, windmills and those difficult burpees Remind us all we've had too many slurpees! If all this exercise proves somewhat defeating We remind ourselves it's time for smart eating. As we swivel and turn to move those hips It is goodbye forever to crisp potato chips! We have puffed and grunted - shown how far we can reach Can one safely say, "Life is a beach"? You've given us hope and fitness to a tee Thank you, Sandra, for MBC. July 21, 2009 "

"I fit in my skinny jeans!"

- Cheryl

""Wow, it is so remarkable how much and how quickly these workouts are helping me ( my lungs, my heart, ,my arms,legs, etc). Your workouts on the beach are wonderful for so many reasons - the location, the routines, youre attentiveness to each of us and to the group (you make such minor adjustments reading each crew's abilities), and the women whom you've gathered. "

- Amy

"I'm so happy that I was able to be part of the very first Bootcampers in Mendocino! I met some incredibly nice women and made some forever friends! Thank you for enabling us to rock n' roll on the beach in fog, sun, wind, warm,cold, whatever mornings. It is wonderful."

- Suzi

"I know I speak for many, if not all of us, when I say that I am very grateful for you and what you have started. Not only have I lost weight and inches, I have gained strength, energy and stamina as well as wonderful memories and new friends. I look forward to many more sandy, wet, hot, cold, sweaty, windy, grunty, fun-filled days (especially Fun Fridays!) with you and everyone else."

- Shelley

"I'm going to make it as often as I can - I always feel so much better having done this class."

- Abbie

"This is so much better than being indoors! I am in an office all day and just don't want to go inside to work out. This is perfect with the fresh air and incredible views. "

"What a wonderful day I had on Tuesday with the Anniversary Bootcamp. The positive energy you exude is contagious! This is wonderful. There is something magic about all the levels and personalities of the women. "

- Kathy Hughes

"I just want to say that I can't believe you do this three times a week. You kicked this 22 year old's behind! I came out thinking, oh, this we'll be fine, these women are so much older - well, I am here to say you are amazing and I am impressed. As a side note from Sandra, Lauren and Taylor came to class today for the first time. Two fit, bright and very lovely young women who rocked it and the whole class really enjoyed having them with us. "

- Lauren

"I am so glad I signed up for Bootcamp! After just two weeks I feel stronger and in better shape."

- Mariyn

"I am away often and occasionally take a pilates class while out of town. When I started, they were really tough for me, but since doing Bootcamp I am much stronger and altogether more fit. Now even the level three pilates classes leave me feeling as though they just aren't enough while the Bootcamp classes still challenge me and I feel like I get a real workout. Thank you!"

- Dulce

"I love the 10 minute challenge! In two weeks I dropped a pant size and am feeling so much stronger. It also helps me to avoid temptation during the day as I don't want to negate all the great benefits of my hard work. Thank you for bringing this into Bootcamp."

- Julie

"I love the ball workout today - and I'm already feeling the areas it targeted. Can we do it every week? "

- Karen

"I am so missing Bootcamp. I have never been in a class like it, not only in the exercises and outdoor environment but the excellent instruction that goes way beyond any other I've had. So knowledgeable. I'll be back as soon as I can."

- Dulce

"Sand, Sand - Where Does it Land? Sand on the knees, sand on the toes It's sand, sand sand wherever we go. Sand in the ears, sand on the face those pesky particles - there're all over the place! Sand in the socks, sand in the shoes Sometimes in the bra - it is so hard to lose. It even settles inside the clean car The leather, the knobs - it does not go far - Sand, sand - where does it land? Every crevice and cranny to beat the band It can be scratchy and even makes us whine Sometimes it lands where the sun does not shine! Sand can be nasty - sand can be damp But it's part of the program when you come to Boot Camp!"

- Unknown

"Our strong leader and guide Who shapes us front and backside Lets us play in her sand box She's Sand-ra the beach fox! Thanks Ann!"

- Ann

"I was cleaning out my fish pond the other day and realized that movements that previously were difficult for me are a piece of cake now! Bending and reaching out, pulling and lifting - all the functional training we do at bootcamp has made it so much easier for me to get through every day. I also lost a whole pant size! "

- Marilyn

"This is like being a kid again - playing in the rain! "
